About us

No hype. Just a real experience.

We’re two housemates who always dreamed of starting our own business. That dream took shape through a shared passion: cold plunging. From the first moment we tried it — focus sharper, calm steady — we were hooked.

Most people in Amsterdam still haven’t tried it, or don’t know where to start. That’s why we founded Yskamer in the 9 Straatjes: a space to introduce heat and cold in a welcoming, stylish, down-to-earth way.

A good rotation for a session is:

  • Take 2–3 minutes in the ice bath (start shorter if you’re new, around 1 minute).
  • Rest for a few minutes between rounds to let your body adjust.
